[Immigrating to Sydney] Sydney, Australia, What the hell are FlyBuys or Fly Buys

[Byron]

Ok,

I finally got sick of people asking me for FlyBuys every time I go shopping, its "FlyBuys sir?". So I looked it up. Google'd it ne'.

In Australia they have a long running loyalty awards program where you currently get 1 or 2 points for every $5, five dollers you spend. And when you have spent about $2500 you are eligible for some rewards. Ok thats the minimum award...

There are a couple of Australian banks and chain stores in this so purchases on credit cards and shopping get you these points.

There are apparently over 10 million people using FlyBuys and its card. Similiar to the tescos card, etc.

There are all types of rewards (over a thousand) apparently such as flights, accommodation, credit card payments, merchandise- you get it I think. Points are only valid for three years. 

Some major shops participate on this - eg Coles, Kmart, Target, Bi-Lo and some others.

So there you have it, just another loyalty scheme..
